But I'm back, so here it is; You know.. I have been wondering lately if the reason Ilse Treurnitch owns next to no shares is because some or all of the 50 million financing will be through TwinRiver Capital. She owns next to no shares of Zen to prevent a conflict of interest which I looked into a long time ago. Maybe it was planned that way from the beginning. It's the long term financial relationship she see's between TRC and Zen. Idk, but I think there's a reason she makes a pretty big salary (bigger then GF as far as I can tell) but has no skin in the game. If anyone hasn't checked out TwinRiver Capital you probably should.
